Parts of the Cell
This regulates what enters and leaves the cell.
What is the cell membrane.
This is the name for the moving a particles from greater concentration to lesser concentration.
Active transport requires this.
What is energy?
This is when plants take in carbon dioxide and water to make oxygen and glucose.
What is photosynthesis?
The cell cycle is a pattern of growth, DNA replication, and this.
What is cell division?
Binary Fission and mitosis are examples of this type of cell division.
What is asexual?
This contains DNA and regulates the making of proteins.
What is the nucleus?
Passive transport gets its name because is doesn't require this.
what is energy?
In active transport, substances move in this direction.
What is lesser to greater? or against the gradiant.
This is the substance in a plant that absorbs sunlight.
What is chlorophyll?
Gap 1, DNA synthesis and Gap 2 are all part of this stage in the cell cycle.
What is interphase?
This results from the uncontrolled division of cells.
What is cancer?
These are found in plant cells only and are involved in protein synthesis.
What are chloroplasts?
These are the two things that must be involved in a transport to qualify as osmosis.
What is a membrane and water?
This is the name (not initials) of the energy molecule.
What is adenosine triphosphate?
Cell respiration happens in this cell organelle.
What is the mitochondria?
This is the name for the cell division that happens in the cell cycle.
What is mitosis?
These are 2 chromosomes that are identical to each other.
What are sister chromatids?
This is the energy molecule made by the mitochondria.
What is ATP?
If you put a cell in this type of solution it will swell up.
What is hypotonic?
These structures are embedded in the cell membrane and are needed to move small molecules and ions across the membrane.
What are protein pumps?
When a cell grows, this can get so large that materials can't pass through the membrane successfully.
What is volume?
This part of interphase is when the cell grows and carries out normal functions and it is the longest.
What is Gap 1?
These originate from the centrioles and they pull the chromosomes apart.
What are spindle fibers?
This process is the opposite of photosynthesis.
What is cell respiration?
What is facilitated diffusion?
This is the name of the bulk movement of particles into the cell.
What is endocytosis?
These are the 2 products of cell respiration.
What are carbon dioxide and water?
These happen to ensure the cell is growing properly, DNA has replicated correctly, and the cell has divided correctly.
What are checkpoints?
These are thin strands consisting of DNA (protein) and histones.
What are chromatin?
